5.1 LENS ADJUSTMENTS

Manual Iris Lenses

Set Lens iris to the required F. number when applicable.

Heavy lenses

Heavy lenses need additional support from a housing or base plate in order to withstand vibration or shocks. Use the correct spacer height to align supported lenses in order to prevent torque damage of internal camera components.

Follow these steps to mount a lens on the camera:

1)Remove the dust cap, and screw the lens into the lens mount.

2)Where applicable, connect the iris control cable for automatic iris control to the lens connector.

3)You will need to adjust the back focus setting after fitting a new lens or replacing a lens.

NOTES:

Lenses without plug or with a non-compatible plug should be wired in accordance with the drawings.

Lens outputs are short-circuit proof.

Point camera at the scene. Adjust LVL (chap. 9.2.2) to desired video level.

DC Iris Lenses

Initial lens setting

Ensure sufficient scene illumination (>200 lux); the camera does not allow lens adjustment under low light conditions.

Push LVL button once, use +/- buttons until the OSD indication on the left [DC lens level] reaches "0".

Note: the OSD counter on the right indicates the reference value for DC lenses only.

Camera/Lens Level Adjustment

Use +/- buttons for adjusting desired video level (OSD indication on the right displays video level).

Video Iris Lenses

Initial lens setting

Point the camera at a test chart or scene; avoid highlights for optimum results.

Ensure sufficient scene illumination (>200 lux); the camera does not allow lens adjustment under low light conditions.

Set the Lens ALC potmeter to the central position.

Push LVL button once, adjust the ALC potmeter until the OSD indication on the left [VI lens Level] reaches "0".

Camera/Lens Level Adjustment
